Treatment
In addition, they have not demonstrated a relationship between treatment-induced changes in synchronisation and changes in bradykinesia or rigidity on their own. To this end, we collected and analysed LFP and clinical data in 30 patients with PD. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
A doctor or physical therapist is an excellent resource to develop an at-home treatment plan to manage symptoms. Crucially, a person should consult their doctor before making any changes to their treatment plan, even small ones. [medicalnewstoday.com]

Although currently there is no cure for PD, the correct diagnosis is important not only for the treatment and prognosis, but also for clinical trials and epidemiological studies. However, practically misdiagnosis of PD is much common. [translationalneurodegeneration.biomedcentral.com]

Etiology The causes of parkinsonism in children are different from those in adults, and thorough examination usually requires a careful search for metabolic as well as degenerative diseases. [endoflifecare.tripod.com]

Pathophysiology
Abstract The aim of this paper is to summarise the main clinical and pathophysiological features of facial bradykinesia in Parkinson's disease (PD) and in atypical parkinsonism. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Conclusions: These results suggest that posed smiling and voluntary grinning are both abnormal in PD patients and that they are likely mediated by a common pathophysiological mechanism. [moh-it.pure.elsevier.com]

The effect of the attention appears to require constant vigilance to prevent reverting to more automatic control mechanisms. 2012 Mak [2] measured and compared the walking patterns of PD patients and controls using a treadmill. [en.wikiversity.org]
Conclusions: Urinary problems in Parkinson’s patients are very frequent, which is why they must be monitored in order to improve their quality of life and prevent damage to the urinary tract, providing adequate and timely attention these problems can [mdsabstracts.org]
